QUICK TESTS. The parties agree to allow the Employers to use, on an individual basis, an oral or urine quick test approved by the bargaining parties as an effective low-cost tool for substance abuse screening for pre-hire, time of dispatch screening only. Testing procedures for the oral test (including the oral screen – OSR device) and the urine test shall be conducted in a manner consistent with the product manufacturer’s specifications; in an effort to produce the most consistent and accurate results possible. Dispatched members who fail this saliva or urine test will be sent for standard urine testing. When the Individual Employer conducts the oral screen, a negative result may be accepted and the applicant may be put to work with no further testing required. A non-negative (inconclusive) result will subject the applicant to the Standard Procedures in this Agreement.
